Sir Ian McGeechan possesses one of the most distinguished careers in the world of rugby.
He began as an outside half for Headingley before winning his first cap for Scotland against New Zealand at Murrayfield in 1972. During a distinguished playing career McGeechan played 32 times for Scotland, nine as captain, and toured with the British and Irish Lions in 1974 and 1977. These Lions tours would be the beginning of a legacy with the touring side that would extend into his years as a coach.
